Rodger, it's not good enough for me for tuning. I can still hear strings that are off when using a Snark. Since I play mostly alone in a quiet room I want it to be as precise as it can be and that is accomplished by either one of my two Petersons, a clip-on model or a Strobo-Stomp.

Perhaps if I were in a band situation I'd consider the Snark. So far, when playing with other instruments, even amplified, the Strobo-Stomp has been perfectly easy to use.
